"yes but"

For all the party clothes it is sometimes dressed up in, perhaps what is called "enlightenment" amounts to little more than the willingness to stop saying "yes but...." Mentally, physically, socially, economically, spiritually ... just give it a rest ... just for a minute or two ... no more "yes but."
